 |
| I've been working on the Portland stone for about a month 22/9/13 |
 |
| I wanted to base the Portland stone on this breeze block piece I created last year while at trinity |
 |
| Inspired by Henry Moore and Barbara Hepworth. I was trying to get to the essence of the human form, using the simplest shapes (oval or egg shape), Expressing its essence while retaining the intimate gentleness of the subject |
 |
| in the early stages a lot of stone had to be removed |
 |
| I realised I could not get exactly the same shape as the breeze block due to an early mistake (mothers head should be bent over the child much more) |
 |
| but I am still happy with the overall shape |
 |
| I had to cut down on the mothers head to get it in proportion |
 |
| I'm confident this piece is developing well |
 |
| it has plenty of potentially intimate angles |
 |
| Everyone had fun and produced amazing sculptures |
 |
| at times working together as a family group |
 |
| or independently |
 |
| each member of the group working at their own level |
 |
| using the knowledge of the group members to solve problems such as attaching a head to its base |
